I've asked this question of a couple of people and got different
answers, so I thought I'd check here.
Suppose, under Japanese rules, I throw a (hopeless) stone into your
territory. I keep passing until you've actually removed it (playing
four stones inside your own territory, thus losing a net three points).
If you try to pass as well, I stubbornly insist that the stone is
alive, thus restarting the game.
Your stubborn insistence does not cause a restart of the game (a
"resumption", article 9.3). It causes a confirmation phase (article
10.4), which is unwound after its result has been found.

What prevents this sort of abuse? Is this one of those cases where the
tournament director has to adjudicate?
(This is not a problem under Chinese or AGA rules.)
